Frequently asked questions
What is a BMP file?
BMP is an old Windows image format. It usually stores every pixel uncompressed, so files are large, and many websites and messaging apps don't accept them.
Will the image change?
No. PNG compression is lossless: every pixel stays exactly as it was in the BMP.
How much smaller will the file get?
Screenshots, diagrams and drawings with flat areas compress very well as PNG. Photos compress much less; JPG may suit them better.
Which BMP files are supported?
Practically all you'll come across: 1, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 bits per pixel, with or without RLE compression, including files with transparency and an embedded color profile.
Are the colors preserved?
Yes. If the BMP has an embedded color profile, it's copied into the PNG; otherwise sRGB is used, just like in the BMP itself.
Is it safe to convert my images here?
Yes. The site only downloads the converter itself; your images are processed in your browser and are never sent to a server.
